Yesterday was a full day of judging, after which, I went and took pics. The opening night Gala was nice evening of wine tasting/competition, tasty hors d'oeuvres, socializing, and shopping (if so inclined).

Cym. Yoko Takai (Red Beauty x Hazel Faye) 'Rebecca'
Cym. Dotz (Arts x Splatters)
The label says Cym. (Doris Spectrum x (tracyanum x devonianum)). Doris Spectrum is presently unregistered, so I'm wondering if the label was mis-printed. Perhaps the exhibitor meant Doris Spectrum (Doris x Devon Spectrum). Devon Spectrum is (tracyanum x devonianum). Anyways, this flower shows strong tracyanum influence.
